Why WHIN?

WHIN Music Community Charter School is the first school of its kind! Built on the principles of El Sistema, WHIN is a place where children learn, grow, and make music together. At WHIN, we are building a nucleo, a community where staff, families, and students work together to make a powerful shift in public education that puts learners’ needs first.

Our Mission:

To provide our diverse student population with rigorous academic instruction, intensive music education and a positive learning environment so that every student can thrive academically and personally.

We believe…

  • that all children deserve a high quality education, with access to academic rigor, music creation, and a holistic approach to developing character.
  • that a collaboration with families ensures the greatest success for our learners.

We are looking for staff who are…

  • looking to grow and prosper in a collaborative work environment
  • excited about working in a school and neighborhood where diversity is central
  • interested in learning about being an educator

In action, our mission looks like caring deeply about all aspects of our young learners’ potential. We make academics a priority while also ensuring students’ character and personal growth. With music at its core, students experience working together to create something bigger than their individual skills every single day, and this approach extends to our classrooms where project-based, hands-on learning cultivates curious, creative, and hardworking learners.
